As Juggernaut!!

yes thats right I guess they are going to have Juggernaut in X-3

Vinnie Jones, who previously worked together with X-Men 3 director Matthew Vaughn on Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, has confirmed to the Leeds United website that he has joined the cast of the third installment.

"My football connections are well over now, I'm cracking on with filming and have just landed a few roles," he said. "I have X-Men 3 to film and that will take six months or so, so I think I might be a bit busy."

Jones was rumored to be in talks for the role of villain Juggernaut in X-Men 3. Vaughn previously told us that "what's interesting about Juggernaut is that he's the brother of Professor X, and that's why I thought it would be interesting having an English thug opposite Patrick Stewart."

For further confirmation, Vinnie Jones' official website says that he "is going to film X Men 3 in America in August, and 4 & 5 if they make them. He plays the character Juggernaut."

Jones has also starred in such films as Gone in Sixty Seconds and Eurotrip.

Have you had enough X3 news for today? I was wondering if I should say this today, or just hold off on it, but it’s exciting news, so we’re going to go and post it now. The X3 cast is ever-expanding with cameos from the X-MEN comics, and now XMF can exclusively reveal two more cameos that you’ll see on the big screen, come May 26th 2006! We back this statement with 100% confidence, and have seen visual proof, so there are no doubts.



SPOILERS (Highlight to read):




OMEGA RED and GAUNLET will be featured briefly in the film, in a scene that resembles the X-Men Evolution episode where the same two characters are chasing after the character, X23. Only this time…it’ll be Wolverine.


END SPOILERS



What’s happening in this scene? We don’t have the full details, but we do know that the scene has been shot already. You may remember seeing photo’s of Hugh Jackman on set recently. It happens in the very same scene. Could it lead off into the WOLVERINE film? Only time will tell!



Also

XMenFilms.net reports that they've learned who will play Multiple Man in X-Men 3:

The debut info of the MULTIPLE MAN appearing in X3 debuted on IGN Filmforce, but now XMF can exclusively reveal that Eric Dane (tv's Charmed) will be playing the character in X3! The actor had about 50 extra's for his duplicates, and his character is allied with the Brotherhood, but seems to be apart of Omega Red's faction.

And some other faces

Michael Murphy (Warren Worthington Sr.), Ricky Hoggard (Avalanche), Haley Ramm (Young Jean Grey), Shauna Kain (Siryn), Bryce Hodgson (Artie), Conner Widows (Jones), Cayden Boyd (Young Angel), Luke Pohl, Beverley Mahood
